Big congratulations to the Biology student of the year (and Dean’s honor awardee) Kaelin Reichmann!

Throughout his time at DePaul, Kaelin has completed multiple projects in the lab of Dr. Kenshu Shimada, published a first author paper, attended several conferences (one international), worked to co-found the DePaul Biology Club, and has participated in multiple events to communicate science both within or outside of the DePaul classroom!

Congrats again Kaelin!
